Sandy Beach Ecosystems: Baseline Characterization and Evaluation of Monitoring Metrics for Mpas Along the South Coast of California
PROJECT TITLE: Sandy Beach Ecosystems: Baseline Characterization and Evaluation of Monitoring Metrics for MPAs along the South Coast of California Investigators: Jenifer E. Dugan, Henry M. Page, Karina J. Nielsen, and Julie M. Bursek REVISED PLAN OF WORK To address the overall objective and achieve our specific study goals, we will use a combination of biodiversity surveys and focal species/taxa sampling on intertidal macroinvertebrate communities of California’s sandy beaches (Table 1). We have revised our plan of work to reflect the funding status of proposed related studies in UCSB’s original multi-project integrative proposal and the reduction in funding. Our orignal plan of work appears in Appendix 1. Table 1. Revised proposed Draft Metrics and Key Attributes for Ecosystem Assessment to be studied on sandy beaches in the South Coast Region. Changes in Draft Indicators/Focal species or Taxa in this table reflect proposed integrative activities that were not funded. Draft Metrics and Key Attributes Draft Indicator/Focal Species or Taxa Trophic Predatory Birds Marine Birds –species richness, abundance, activity, Structure zone use Shorebirds, Seabirds, Gulls, Other birds, Terrestrial birds, including raptors and Belding’s Savannah Sparrow Marine Predators Pinnipeds- composition, abundance, activity, zone Suspension Feeders Macroinvertebrates - abundance, biomass, size structure Sand crabs, Pismo clams, Bean clams Productivity Beach wrack Macrophyte wrack composition, abundance, biomass Wrack invertebrate diversity, abundance, biomass Diversity Intertidal macroinvertebrate species richness Non- Human use - recreational activity, zone used consumptive Wildlife viewing Use Consumptive Fishing, Clamming Use Monitoring Sites We will conduct surveys to describe the ecological conditions, including draft indicator/focal species or taxa for key attributes and metrics of a range of beach types inside and outside of MPAs in the south coast region. -
